Wake / Kite Binding Stance: When mounting your bindings on a wake or kiteboard, it is important to start off with a wider stance when learning, and then adjust it once you are more comfortable on the board. The wider stance gives you more stability and most people will always ride with their feet angled outward, also known as a duck stance.
If you feel pressure on either or both knees, or on the outside of your feet, the chances are your feet are parallel or straight on the board and you need to angle them outward a little more.
Try wakeboarding or kiteboarding with several different stances to find out what works best for you.
How is a kiteboard different from a wakeboard? Wakeboarding is a great way to keep up with your skills when there is not enough wind for kiteboarding. Your skills are already honed for wakeboarding and you will have no trouble getting up and moving.
Kiteboards may look the same but they are very different from one another. A kiteboard has a concave bottom unlike the convex bottom of a wake board. Kiteboarders constantly ride on the edge of their board a lot like a snowboarder carving down a slope. The concave bottom helps kiteboarders to cut into the water holding a better edge, and helping them to stay upwind and are also designed to handle waves.
Wakeboards are designed to be thrusted off the tail, riding behind a a boat or cable e at higher speeds and typically on flat water. They are typically heavier due to the bindings but act as a counter weight aiding rotation speed in the quick jumps off a boat /cable wake. Their stiffness and rocker are designed for hard landings.
For beginners a wakeboard with a lot of rocker will feel loose, but it will teach you how to edge correctly rather than relying heavily on fins. In contrast, less rocker allows wakeboards to move faster, hook up better and become more aggressive. The wakeboard rider can be more aggressive with his turns and really edge hard through the wake.
If you’re the type of wakeboard / kiteboarder who loves to turn fast, go big and land out in the flats but you ride a bigger, steeper wake, try to find wakeboards with medium rocker. The slower, smoother and more wake-to-wake your style is, the more rocker you need in your wakeboards.

DescriptionThe Hyperlite State Junior Wakeboard series is a shape that you don't have to learn how to ride, it will perform comfortably for all ability levels and styles.
The Hyperlite State is shaped differently from edge to edge helping a rider compensate for the awkwardness edging, jumping and landing on a toeside edge.
The subtle 3-stage rocker provides a great pop off the wake while remaining a smooth carver.
The Hyperlite State is a great board for riders getting into the sport or those who are looking for advancement in their skills on the board.
Features:
Toe Side / Heel Side Specific Edges: The State Junior board stands up higher on a toeside rail, and sets a harder edge on a heelside rail. To put it simply, you don't edge the same way on your toeside as you do on your heelside. And whether you're riding regular or switch your you use the same edge for your toeside or heelside edging. People tend to struggle with their toeside edging, so the Eden is designed with a different toeside edge that is designed to make it easier to create a correct edge and hold it all the way through the wake..
Subtle 3-Stage Rocker: The most progressive rocker line designed for a variety of riding styles and ability levels. The arc of this board is similar to that of the traditional 3-stage rocker, but with a much smaller flat spot. This gives the board more speed, but still allows it to snap abruptly off of the wake. Great for the intermediate through advanced rider looking to get to the next level.
Outer Molded-In Stabilizers: A deeper molded-in Heelside fin, and a shallower molded-In Toeside fin gives a great foothold, helping you to stomp your landings.
2 x Removeable 1.3"
Disorder Fins:
Why go to 6"
Wakeboard Boot Plates?
* Riders can choose to use both inside and outside mounting locations on Strata track boards. Four additional Strata track t-nuts will be required.
You have 6”
